Twin Cities Marathon

Project Purple is excited to once again participate in the Twin Cities Marathon! This event has all the beauty of the Twin Cities to offer, along with a huge crowd of supporters to cheer you on, and, for the competitive runners, is a Boston qualifier. The Twin Cities Marathon has all the benefits of the other top 10 marathons, with the added bonuses of less congestion during your run, a less expensive travel experience, and was dubbed “The Most Beautiful Urban Marathon in America” by Runner’s World.

Twin Cities 10 Mile Run

The Twin Cities 10 Mile race has all the perks of the full marathon, with a shorter distance. It makes for a gorgeous endurance test, and has the added benefit of ending at the same time and place as the full Marathon! Same great experience with a slightly less daunting challenge. This is one of the most popular 10 mile races in the country, and for good reason. Entries for this event are limited, so submit your application soon! The application is below.

What do you get when you run with us in the Twin Cities 26.2 or 10 Miler?

There will be more benefits, including fundraising incentives, and race weekend activities. These are still to be determined.

Have your own entry for this race?

You can still join the team to beat pancreatic cancer! All the benefits are the same, with half the fundraising minimum. Own-entry runners who want to join our 10 Mile team have a $325 minimum. Own-entry runners who want to join our marathon team have a $250 minimum.
